Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

To wake with a song in your heart is beautiful, to feel it return Every Day is nothing short of a miracle, one that we need to embrace more by taking apart all that threatens our equilibrium and our sanity.

Start the day with a voice that pleases, herald the dawn with a sense of music that gives pleasure, and tackle the foes who ground our mental health down with wave after wave of new songs that spur the imagination and refuse to let us begrudge the past, only add to it, give it texture and flavour that gives the day a sense of the hopeful eternal.

One of the authentic voices is none other that Bibby, that much was to be discovered in the album Greenwich Mean Times, and the subsequent singles that have followed the same crucial path of late, and in the latest E.P., Every Day, that sense of honour and glory once more appears like an oasis of calm in a desert that has at times threatened to overwhelm us.

Bibby brings the homeliness of expression to its rightful place in the listener’s heart as the five tracks, True Grit, Don’t Go Wasting All Your Time, Hell Or High Water, Can’t See The Light, and the E.P. title track Every Day, bring a sense of the absolute and beauty to the front line of tackling the moment of rise and shine, and throws of the blanket of concern and deprivation onto the fire that consumes the air.

Bibby has such a way with unfolding the truth that the songs that are placed before the listener are glorious in their own eternity, they sing of forgotten human manifesto, they confront the diseases of regret with a fine determination, and they captivate they charm in the best tradition of the gentle lullaby that holds all that distresses at bay.

Once more Bibby comes into the lives of the music loving public armed with a mission to comfort and pleasure with a set of songs that are the heralds of the Every Day and the sentinels of tomorrow’s peace.
